So Sorry to hear about your loss. I know Josephine's memories will last forever in your heart. May the passage of Psalm 116:15 give you peace and comfort.

Josie was a gentle soul, kindhearted, and loving lady. When Skip and I visited her recently she shared with us just how important her family and friends had always been in her life. She shared that her greatest gifts were her son, grandchildren and great grandchildren, and her extended family. We hope you know that you are her greatest legacy. She was very proud of each and every one of you. Carrie and Davey (Warren) - she loved y'all dearly. She shared with us on numerous occasions how grateful she was for everything you did for her. May each of you find God's peace and comfort in knowing that she lived a blessed and fulfilled life. She knew she was loved!

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
